Liverpool John Lennon Airport has checked-in as a new partner of Chester Racecourse, taking title sponsorship of Family Fun Day on Sunday 4 August.

The Faster, Easier, Friendlier Airport of choice, which operates flights to around 70 destinations in the UK and across Europe, has landed the title rights to the race day alongside a host of digital opportunities.

Now referred to as the Liverpool John Lennon Airport Family Fun Day, the action-packed racecourse event hosts a range of immersive activities for children and is free to attend for those under 17.

This year’s occasion is set to welcome much-loved children’s TV favourites Bluey & Bingo for personal appearances, as well as a fun fair and inflatable play zone.

Paul Winfield, Director of Aviation Development for Liverpool John Lennon Airport, said:

“We are delighted to announce our new partnership with Chester Racecourse and look forward to exploring the opportunities that this title sponsorship brings.

“The racecourse is located less than 30 miles away from our airport and many of our passengers regularly travel from Chester, Cheshire and across the North West.

“Our association with the Family Fun Day will allow us to better connect with families in the region, as we prepare for the height of the summer season.”

Kate Dawson, Commercial Director at Chester Racecourse, said:

“We are excited to welcome Liverpool John Lennon Airport as a new arrival at Chester Racecourse.

“Our demographic and reach are perfectly suited to the geographic location of the airport, with thousands of our guests regularly flying out on holidays from Liverpool.

“This partnership is one that brings many benefits, and we look forward to developing those at our Liverpool John Lennon Airport Family Fun Day and beyond.”
